Friends, this Canucks30 character does indeed make some valid points. And I commend him for his amusing mixture of “history lessons, video footage and time machines” in making his argument. However the fact remains that we live in the present, not the past. And as the reigning Stanley Cup Champions, we LA Kings count the Vancouver Canucks as nothing more than one of those who we “annihilated” during our glorious march to victory last year. Same goes for the Blues, Yotes, Devils, or anyone else who comes to stand in our way. The key is to win when it counts and last year we proved to all that there’s no one better at doing that than us! The kicker however is that it only gets better from here. Don’t ask me how I know, but I do. And I can assure you friends that last year was mere “child’s play” compared to what we have in store for these people this year! 🙂

To your stations friends and be ready … we’re about to go back in for more !

Los Angeles Kings, 1, Vancouver Canucks 0

What’s even better is we plowed your team under to get there. So thanks for your sh*tty performance in the first round last season, hope to see you again this season on our way to a second Cup.

Just like the Seattle Metropolitans, Victoria Cougars, Montreal Maroons, and the original Ottawa Senators among many others.

The Stanley Cup pre-dates the NHL and the original six.

Perhaps you should brush up on your hockey knowledge.

Seriously though, I hope this isn’t the case. Everyone bashed Homer when he traded those two. But they were not committed to the team, enjoyed the nightlife a little too much.

The 1914-15 Vancouver Millionaires

The city of Los Angeles has 1 Stanley Cup

The 2011-12 LA Kings

So I guess we’re even.

Sun, 24 Mar 2013 08:06:04 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1357900#comment-153606The Kings have made it past the first round of the playoffs twice in 18 years.

During the same time period the Canucks have made it past the first round 7 times and have appeared in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals twice.

During that time period the Colorado Avalanche won 2 Stanley Cups, the Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers lost in game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals once each, and the Minnesota Wild appeared in the 2003 Western Conference Finals (in the years the Avalanche didn’t win the Stanley Cup they appeared in round 3 routinely)

Despite this, the Canucks faired relatively well against the Avalanche and routinely made the playoffs while the Kings went on 2 separate long playoff droughts and weren’t nearly as competitive against the Pacific Divison.

In addition, the Canucks had the best record against Pacific and Central Division teams in each of the last 2 seasons they won the President’s trophy.

In other words, YOUR WRONG.

Regardless, the Kings and Canucks are Division rivals as of next season so we shall see what transpires moving forward.
